To avoid inspection I’ll run an Antique tag but PA does have “66 HP2” plate available. Would be pretty cool.
Guess I should focus on getting it road worthy first …
I ask more to check the accuracy of Mecum’s posted description. Given the clarification here it’s correct. For it would be worth anyway I would take exception if the current block was not factually correct an HP2. I understand now.
Just checking those guys. :elmer:
426 CI Hemi HP2 V-8 engine
I think he means "HP2" car badging.... that said, we've already determined that the engine is not original to the car, as it was built / cast in 1966 not 1965.
You might've driven with a cup in your lap. No me. What makes you think we didn't have cup holders back then ? This is what I had, and used : hang it over the inside door trim.
My engine does not have a vin on either location.
simply the date on the raised pad below the coil. Which is where all 1966 and I think 67 engines as well
66 application will be BH ( same as mine )
67 allplication will be CH
Those pics of vins I posted are of engine Ive grabbed off the net.
It is going in a 68 Charger 4 speed street car. Very basic build. L2266 TRW Pistons with rebuilt '67 915 HP heads with stock valves sizes/ports, maybe 9.25:1 compression, .484 Mopar purple camshaft, HP exhaust manifolds. Would be surprised if it will be over 375-400 horsepower at the crank...
